Where to buy soil? Recommendations please
Posted 6 Oct 11 9:24 PM
Hi,
My boyfriend is kindly building me a fairly large L shaped raised bed. It is pretty deep on one side as the ground slopes. I would think it would take at least a trailer or two of soil. Where is the best place to buy this? I am more familiar with bags of soil but would imagine bags are not the most economical way to buy?
I am in the Auckland region.
Thankyou!

As well as buying soil you should look at composting your food waste as this is excellent to use on the garden.

Central landscape supplies.. they have free loan trailers too but you need to get there early to get a trailer.

There is either Central Landscape Supplies, or Oderings Garden Centre-we usually have several trailers available through the day, and we have basically the exact same stuff as Central. We stock Daltons i think...
